Abstract
A charging flap system for a motor vehicle that is at least partially operated electrically has a charging connection, which is arranged in a charging well, for electrically charging the motor vehicle, in particular a battery of the motor vehicle, a pivotable, outer covering flap which covers the charging well in a closed position and opens up same in an open position, and a pivotable, inner charging flap which opens up the charging connection in a charging position. The inner charging flap and the outer covering flap interact in such a manner that the outer covering flap and the inner charging flap are coupled to each other in a form-fitting manner in an intermediate position between the open position and the closed position.
